Question 7

Do I have to fundraise?

Accepted Answer

You don’t have to fundraise – just pay the individual £25 registration fee or family of four regisration fee of £35. However, Olly's Future needs £100k per year to deliver its programmes, so every penny counts. We’ve set a £100 target and can help you set up a fundraising page.
